Canadian Payday Loan Association (CPLA)

Organization Profile

The Canadian
Payday Loan Association (CPLA) represents the majority of licensed payday
lenders in Canada.

The
CPLA is the national trade association for companies that provide Canadians
with short-term loans or payday advances in small amounts to help cover
unanticipated expenses.

CPLA
is not your typical industry association. The CPLA works to promote laws and
regulations that balance strong consumer protections while preserving access to
short-term credit for millions of Canadians. And we’re a leader in best
business practices and consumer protection.

Our
mandate is to work with governments toward a national regulatory framework that
will allow for a viable industry and protect consumers.
